  • Title: [Inter-arm blood pressure difference does not always mean dissection].
    Author: Boue E, Gervaise A, Demaison X.
    Journal: Rev Med Brux; 2018; 39(3):161-163. PubMed ID: 29869476.
    Abstract:
    A man presents an atypical neurological disorder. The diagnosis of aortic dissection is evoked with anisotension, but it consists in a paradoxical embolism in the presence of a permeable foramen oval since he presents with a proximal pulmonary embolus and a thrombus in the humeral artery. Un homme se présente avec un trouble neurologique d’allure atypique. Le diagnostic de dissection aortique est évoqué devant une anisotension, mais il s’agit ici d’un tableau d’embolie paradoxale sur foramen ovale perméable puisqu’il présente une embolie pulmonaire proximale et un thrombus dans l’artère humérale.
